A dynamic random access memory device having a ferroelectric thin film perovskite (Ba.sub.1-x Sr.sub.x)TiO.sub.3 layer sandwiched by top and bottom (Ba.sub.1-x Sr.sub.x)RuO.sub.3 electrodes. The memory device is made by a MOCVD process including the steps of providing a semiconductor substrate, heating the substrate, exposing the substrate to precursors including at least Ru(C.sub.5 H.sub.5).sub.2, thereafter exposing the substrate to precursors including at least TiO(C.sub.2 H.sub.5).sub.4 and thereafter exposing the substrate to precursors including at least Ru (C.sub.5 H.sub.5).sub.2.

A ferroelectric memory device having a perovskite thin film of a rare earth manganate and processes for manufacturing the same. The perovskite thin film layer has properties consistent with high quality nonvolatile memory devices. The perovskite thin film layer can be applied by a MOCVD process, by a MOD process, or a liquid source delivery process, all of which are described.
